Firefighters are battling a vacant commercial building blaze in Rainier Beach Wednesday morning.

The fire began burning on the 9200 block of Renton Avenue South in Seattle around 5:30 a.m.

“Crews on scene report flames through the roof of the vacant building,” the Seattle Fire Department wrote on X at 5:40 a.m. “They are in a defensive position, putting water on the fire at a safe distance away from the building.”

The SFD upgraded the fire to two alarms after calling in additional resources, it said.
